A special kimono experience delivered by a long-established rental costume store that has been supporting the kimono culture of the ancient city of Nara for 103 years. You will see, touch, and actually wear gorgeous and vibrant kimonos (uchikake) that you cannot wear in a general kimono experience. Uchikake is a costume that you only have the opportunity to wear on important days in life such as weddings, and is a costume that Japanese women long for. It is also very expensive and has high artistic value compared to normal kimonos, and our company has uchikake worth more than 1 million yen. As we have been involved in weddings for many years, we have more than 60 such precious uchikake. It is rare in the country to see and actually try on so many uchikake in one experience, and this was made possible by a long-established rental costume store. This experience, where you can experience traditional Japanese beauty by wearing an uchikake that has long expressed the dignity and elegance of Japanese women, will surely make you feel happy and will be a memory that you will cherish for a lifetime. [Terminology explanation] Uchikake: A costume with a history of more than 450 years. In modern times, it is a formal attire that is generally only worn at weddings. There are two types of uchikake: the pure white Shiromuku, which is worn at wedding ceremonies such as Shinto weddings, and the colorful Iro-uchikake, which is worn when gathering with relatives and friends after the wedding.

Wild red sea bream caught at Maruyama Fishing Port, overlooking the Onaruto Bridge, is famous as a representative sea bream of Awaji Island, and has a history of being presented to the Emperor in four eras from the Taisho era to the Reiwa era. Two generations of fishermen who know the Naruto Strait inside and out will guide you while fishing for wild red sea bream in a fishing ground with an excellent location overlooking the Onaruto Bridge. Board a fishing boat with a fisherman who knows the fishing ground inside and set off to fish for wild red sea bream! Instead of relying on a fish finder, they look at the direction of the mountains and cast their nets. This fishing method, called Gochiami fishing, is said to be difficult to catch unless you are an experienced fisherman, as the net is cast at a pinpoint while identifying the tide. This fishing method involves creating an encircling shape with an oval net and tugs tied to both ends, which narrows the net to intimidate and drive the fish into the net, where they are caught by getting entangled in the mesh. While catching fish, the fishermen will demonstrate and explain how to "release the air" from the swim bladders, which are inflated by the difference in water pressure, to keep the fish fresh, and the different types of fish. Usually, fishing by casting and pulling the net is done several times a day, but on this tour, you will only see it once or twice. After that, they will return to port and land the fish. You can see up close the craftsmanship of reading the tides and casting the net to the right spot without waste. You can also purchase the fish caught on the day of the experience. ■Experience Schedule10:00 Gathering (This may change depending on the tides on the day.
